By an 81 - 16 percent margin, Pennsylvania voters oppose issuing driver's licenses to illegal
aliens, and oppose 75 - 19 percent issuing limited licenses which can't be used at security checks
at airports or border crossings, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Illegal immigration is a "very serious" or "somewhat serious" problem, 90 percent of
Pennsylvania voters tell the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN uh-pe-ack) University poll. But 59
percent of voters say illegal immigrants who have worked in the U.S. two years should be allowed
to apply for legal status while 36 percent say they should be deported. On other immigration
questions, voters say:

58 - 37 that children of illegal immigrants should not get a free public education;

By margins of 8 - 1 or more, that government should not provide health insurance, food
stamps, welfare or housing;

61 - 26 percent that illegal immigrants do more to hurt the country than help the country;

77 - 15 percent that legal immigrants do more to help the country;

57 - 31 percent that illegal immigrants take jobs nobody wants, rather than take jobs away
from Americans who need them;

Split 47 - 45 percent on whether government should discourage illegal immigrants from
gathering in parking lots and on street corners to find work.

"Pennsylvania voters want no part of issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and are
generally conservative in their thinking about how government should handle the immigration
problem. Significantly though, they think illegal workers who have been here more than two years
should be given a chance to become legal rather than just being deported," said Clay F. Richards,
assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.

Pennsylvania voters oppose 50 - 37 percent a proposal to lease the Pennsylvania Turnpike
to a private company, even with the state keeping control of toll increases and maintenance.
Democrats are divided 44 - 42 percent, while Republicans oppose it 60 - 27 percent with
independent voters opposed 50 - 39 percent.

If they had to choose, 41 percent of voters would prefer leasing the Pennsylvania Turnpike
to a private company, while 36 percent would prefer tolls on Interstate 80, with 13 percent
choosing neither.

"Voters just say 'no' to either leasing the Pennsylvania Turnpike or putting tolls on
Interstate 80," Richards said.

Pennsylvania voters support 62 - 32 percent a ban on smoking in all bars, restaurants and
public buildings in the state. While levels of support vary, the measure carries among all parties
and in every part of the state. Women back the smoking ban 67 - 28 percent, while men support it
57 - 38 percent.

Pennsylvania voters approve 53 - 36 percent of the job Gov. Ed Rendell is doing. But
voters say 52 - 38 percent that Gov. Rendell is not qualified to be Vice President of the U.S. Only
16 percent of voters say they would be more likely to vote for the Democratic ticket in 2008 if
Rendell were the running mate, while 23 percent are less likely to vote Democratic and 55 percent
say it won't affect their vote.

Former Sen. Rick Santorum is qualified to be Governor, 41 percent of voters say, while 43
percent say he is not qualified. If he runs for Governor, 41 percent of voters say they "definitely"
or "probably" will vote for him, while 50 percent probably or definitely won't vote for him.

"While not enthusiastic about either prospect, Pennsylvania voters are more open to former
Sen. Rick Santorum running for Governor than they are to the idea of Gov. Ed Rendell running for
Vice President," Richards said.

From October 30 - November 5, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,019 Pennsylvania
voters with a margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage points.

The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public
opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio and the
nation as a public service and for research.
